Answer #3

Hello, The amount was credited to your friend’s account from a fraudulent government account. In cases of cyber fraud, it is crucial to determine at which stage or “layer” the money was received. This helps in understanding the level of involvement and liability, if any. I will need more detailed information regarding the nature of the transaction and how the money was transferred. As for the bail aspect, it is advisable to wait until the chargesheet (challan) is filed, and then apply for regular bail accordingly.
